From the movies on your list, I have watched only Vanilla Sky, Game, Eternal Sunshine... and Fight Club. And the title of your post is apt for these movies. But the one that really tugged on both my heart and mind in a way that I will never forget is Vanilla Sky. There is something so sad about it, when she says, "We will meet in another life time when we are both cats." It makes me feel, if you love somebody just Say It! Don't wait for tomorrow or the day after. Cause some things in life don't last forever. This is one of the saddest movies I have watched.
